Product Description

Common use

Benemid is used to treat hyperuricemia (high uric acid) and reduce blood uric levels in the patients with gout and gouty arthritis. Benemid contains Probenecid and sometimes is given together with penicillin antibiotics to increase their effectiveness. Probenecid prevents reabsorption of uric acid and blocks excretion of the antibiotics by the kidney.

Dosage and direction

Drink plenty of water while you are on Benemid to avoid formation of kidney stones. To treat hyperuricemia take 500 mg of Benemid twice daily. The maximum recommended dose is 2 gm daily. In combination with penicillin antibiotics the usual dose of Benemid is 500 mg taken four times a day.
